N.H.L.: PITTSBURGH; Brooks's Suspension Extended a Game

Published: January 19, 2000

Penguins Coach Herb Brooks was suspended by the league yesterday for an additional game for shoving and verbally attacking Colorado Avalanche announcer John Kelly, who suggested that a Pittsburgh player, Matthew Barnaby, embellishes injuries.

Brooks, who returned to the N.H.L. as a coach last month, was given the extra game's suspension during a disciplinary hearing in New York.
